About Discovery Music Course

For ages 7 – 11 (School Years 3,4,5 & 6).

Our Discovery Music Course is an exciting opportunity for young musicians to explore a diverse range of musical styles and genres. Through weekly ensemble classes in strings, wind, brass, or percussion, students will develop essential skills in ensemble playing, notation reading, improvisation, and musicianship.

Participants will work on a variety of genres, including pop, jazz, and classical standards, all while mastering their chosen instrument.

Please note that while Guildhall Young Artists Kings Cross offers tuition on a variety of instruments, we are unable to accommodate piano as a first instrument of study.

In addition to their music ensemble class, Discovery students (in both Music and Drama courses) will participate in the GYA Kings Cross Choir each week, further enhancing their ensemble and musicality skills.

The Discovery Music Course is ideal for beginners, those looking to spend enjoyable hours making music with new friends, or anyone considering taking their musical passion to the next level.

At Guildhall Young Artists, we prioritise creativity and collaboration and Discovery students will have the chance to participate in centre-wide performance opportunities, both at our venue and beyond.

Classes run from 9am to 11am, providing students with 1 hour and 45 minutes of lesson time, including a 15-minute break.
